From Wikipedia:

A bustier (alternately bustiere) is a form-fitting garment for women, which is traditionally worn as lingerie. Its primary purpose is to push up the bust by tightening against the upper midriff and forcing the breasts up, while gently shaping the waist. Nowadays, it might also be worn as a push-up bra under a low-backed dress, or as a camisole for outer wear. The bustier can also be worn as a half-slip under diaphanous upper garments if a bold display of the midriff is not desired.

A bustier resembles a basque, but is shorter. It reaches down only to the ribs or waist.

Modern bustiers are often made with mesh panels rather than the traditional boning.

Now, if your significant other actually has a practical use for a bustier then why would you not go out and buy one?

If you are someone that has way too much money and has no clue what to do with it then may we recommend the bustier that was created by Indian designer ORRA that is stuffed with…….diamonds and at a busty 1 million Euros or $1.3 million USD will bring out the bust best in your partner.
